Guess what?!?! DH said "yes" to buying an elliptical machine. SOOOOO...........it's been ordered. I have no idea when it'll come, but hopefully it won't be too long.


My PT doctor, told me no running. So that threw out my "best" exercise. He okay'd elliptical, walking, recumbant bike however. DH and I were at the sporting good store and saw some. I wasn't serious about getting one, however, I know if I had something "at home" I'd exercise more. It's just the way I am. I don't think anything is going to stop that whole anxiety and feeling strange of going to a gym.


Anyhow. So, the one I wanted, and the one we both liked, was like $800. Ouch. It was a decent one. pretty good reviews. I got it at HSN for like $550!!! So, DH said, "go for it, buy it. ONLY if you're going to USE it". So I promised to get on it, at least 15 mins a day, 5-6 days a week. I also promised him it won't turn into a clothes rack for at least a year, or until I hit 130. :)


Hey, gotta justify that purchase, right?


I'm excited though. He knows I used to work out a lot more when I could do in the privacy of my own home. And I know I will too. So, now, I just need to make room for that huge thing. LOL.

Great job on getting it all set up and getting your first workout under your belt! Whoo hoo! Sounds like a hectic weekend, though, no wonder you were exhausted!!
